TechnoServe's Coffee Initiative is financed by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and supports coffee cooperatives in East Africa in helping them expand and improve their businesses. In Ethiopia alone it works with over 70 cooperatives. Apposit provides a hosted Monitoring and Evaluation system that allows field agents to report daily on cherry volumes and weekly on more detailed reports by submitting reports via SMS and IVR. The system is designed to ensure data quality by providing complex validation of data and sending out reminders if data is not submitted.
